WARREN * "Treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers." From the Farewell Address of the Holy Prophet Muhammad1 I. INTRODUCTION By the end of February 632 and at the age of sixty-three, the Prophet Muhammad believed that his days on earth were coming to an end.2 He announced to his followers that he would lead the hajj, the annual pilgrimage to Mecca, himself that year.3 On March 3, the Prophet delivered his farewell sermon near Mount Arafat.4 Among the limited number of topics he chose to include in his last public speech, he encouraged his followers to deal justly with one another and treat women well. 5 In the modem era, the rights of women under Islamic law have come under heightened scrutiny. Some commentators find the Prophet's farewell speech to be inconsistent with the way women are treated in some areas of the Muslim world. In Saudi Arabia, for example, women may neither drive nor vote.

There have been many people throughout my life who have made this thesis what it is.. I have been blessed with a wonderful and loving family who have always supported me and whom I can always turn to for guidance. They have been my role models, my harshest critics, and my strongest advocates. This thesis would not have been possible without them. But I have also been blessed, throughout my life, with numerous adoptive families who have had a direct bearing on this work. When I first arrived in Cairo in the fall of 2008, Ibrahim, Hossain, Ali, and their father took me in as one of their own, always making sure that I remained safe and sane in that hectic city; and for that I will always be grateful. I was also surrounded by a group of friends who were and have continued to be my colleagues and my coadventurers, and they will always have a special place in my life. And finally, this thesis was conceived of and nurtured through its early stages under the guidance of two professors at the American University in Cairo, Dr.

However, by the sixth century AD, so completely were their scriptures and teachings distorted that had the founder or the Prophet of any one of them returned to Earth, he would unquestionably have refused his own religion and denounced its followers as apos- tates and idolaters. Judaism had, by then, been reduced to an amalgam of dead rituals and sacraments with- out any spark of life left in it. Also, being a religion upholding a strong racial identity, it never had a message for other nations or for the good of the humanity at large. Through mysticism and magic many polytheistic ideas and customs again found their way among the people, and the Talmud confirms the fact that idolatrous worship is seductive.

    MUHAMMAD WIVES Khadijah bint Khuwaylid Edit Main article: Khadijah bint Khuwaylid In Makkah — prior to Hijra — Muhammad lived with his wife Khadijah bint Khuwailid. He was twenty-five and she was forty when they got married. She was the first woman he married and his only wife until she died. None of their sons lived long. Their daughters were Zainab, Ruqaiya, Umm Kulthum and Fatimah. Khadija's own generosity and moral support for Muhammad in his early stage as Prophet of Islam were invaluable to him. Aisha bint Abu Bakr Edit Main article: Aisha Template:NPOV Aisha was the daughter of Abu Bakr, a close friend and confidant of Muhammad, and controversial figure in the differing depictions in Shia and Sunnihistorical narratives. Muhammad married Aisha before the Hijra, however Muslim scholars differ on whether Muhammad married Sawda or Aisha first. Muhammad married Sawda one month after the death of his first wife Khadija upon suggestion of one of his companions. Regardless, Muhammad did not consummate his marriage with Aisha until she reached the age of nine, and lived with Sawda during that time.[1] , and the subject of increasing attention in recent years because critics of Muhammad who accept the majority tradition that she was as young as nine years old when her marriage was consummated believe this. There are several hadiths (said to have been written by Aisha herself) which state she was six or seven years old when betrothed and nine years old when married or when the marriage was consummated. Despite that, given the variations of Ayesha's exact age being reported in different ahadith - some saying Aisha was in her mid-teens or even older when the actual marriage took place - a lot of Islamic academics have said that only using the Hadith and comparing practices of 7th Century Arabia - where child marriages were a common tradition not just in Arabia but India, China, and Europe as well - to the modern is taking the issue out of context.

Cholem Ullah Center for University Requirement Courses (CENURC) International Islamic University Chittagong (IIUC), Bangladesh Abstract In the 10th Hijrah, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) performed Hajj (pilgrimage) only once in his life and delivered his historic 'Farewell Sermon' for the liberation and welfare of the world humanity. This paper explores the importance and significance of the sermon in the context of its historical demand and its place in the world civilisation. The article also attempts to review historically on speaker, time and application of the speech to determine its place in perspective of world history and Islamic history as well. The methodology of the paper followed a qualitative approach comprised of the secondary source. It is argued that the sermon is the only historic speech in the world that incomparable provisions on liberation and welfare of humanity till the Final Day. The ultimate implication of the magnificent sermon is sustained ensuring its time was momentous and eventful; the more appropriate time cannot be estimated. Thus, according to historical analysis, the farewell sermon of the Final Apostle (PBUH) is the demand of time intimately and significantly that relevant to today’s life and society.
